Slack

Notifying your team via a Slack webhook automation

HireFlow doesn't have a native Slack app connection. Instead, Slack notifications are self-service: you point a custom automation at your own Slack Incoming Webhook URL.

Setup

  1. In Slack, go to your workspace's Apps → Incoming Webhooks and create a webhook for the channel you want notified. Copy the webhook URL Slack gives you.
  2. In HireFlow, open the relevant job's pipeline and pick the stage you want to trigger on.
  3. Add a new automation, choose the custom action type, and paste the Slack webhook URL as the target.
  4. Save. HireFlow will now POST to that URL whenever a candidate enters that stage.

See Automations for the full worked example, including how to check whether a notification actually fired.

No admin setup required

Because this uses your own Slack webhook URL rather than a shared HireFlow-wide connection, any teammate who can create automations can set this up. No admin involvement needed.
